Various news papers in northern Minnesota have during,the past few months found a good proportion of their news in the Pioneer's columns and have not scrupled to use il without credit. These newspa pers are entirely welcome to con tinue this practice for in so doat ing they compliment the Pioneer highly. A newspaper which furnishes so large a proportion of the news of numerous other newspapers must be achieving some success. Other newspa pers in northern Minnesota go further and lift the Pio neer's editorials and semi-editor ials bodily into their columns and print them as their own genuine manufacture. The Pioneer is of the opinion that they could do better by thinking for themselves but we appreciate the compli ment they pay us in thinking otherwise. Minneapolis Journal prints column long editoriasl on the Hearst candidacy for presi dent about which nobody cares much, but resolutely eschews all reference to the gubernatorial situation in Minnesota a matter in which we are all quite a little interested..,. Somebody ought to suggest to the Journal that maybe it could hire Charlie Cheney to write a political editor ial or two. THE only way for Bernidji to become permanently prosperous and to maintain a steady growth is to secure manufacturing enter prises. We understand this very -wetirbutunderstanding will profit us littje if we do not keep acting on it all the time.

PRINCIPALS IN WILTON HOLIHJP CHANGE THEIR PLEA. Pleaded Guilty to Robbery Second Degree Last Night. in Tonight at 6 o'clock Judge Mc Clenahan will pass sentence upon Lyle Cory and Roy Loveland, who entered pleas of guilty to robbery in the second degree last night, at 6 o'clock tonight. John Mc Guain, the horse thief,will also be up for the third time and his case will be disposed of. Cory and Loveland are the highwaymen who entered a Wil ton saloon last November and held up the proprietor, leaving him gagged and bound hand and foot. They secured a small sum of money and were apprehended about a month later. Loveland had barely attained his majority and Cory is under twenty-five years of age. The robbery was one of the most daring ever com mitted in this vicinity and both entered pleas of not guilty to a charge of robbery in thefirstde gree. Last night they appeared 6 o'clock and pleaded guilty to an amended charge of robbery in the second degree. Both will probably get long terms in the state penitentiary at Stillwater. John McGuain, the horse thief about whose sanity serious doubts have been entertained, will also be disposed of and will probably receive alight sentence. The case of Astrid Peterson vs. the Minnesota & Interna tional Railway for $5,000 damages was dismissed by the court last night at the conclusion of the plaintiff's evidence, the court holding that the evidence had failed to establish negligence on the part of the company in a suf ficiently reasonable degree to warrant its 'going to the jury. County Attorney Loud and At torney Chamberlain appeared for the railroad company and Chester McCusick for the plain tiff. Owing to the illness of the plaintiff it was impossible to hear her testimony and it was not gotten before the jury. The action will be brought* again at the September term of court. The case of J. J. Robideau vs. the Iron Range Telephone Com pany is being tried today. The plaintiff asks for damages for permanent injuries sustained in running againsta telephone wire. while returning to his home from the Smith residence at the cor ner of Tenth street and Beltrami avenue. He alleges that he was thrown to the ground by striking the wire, which he was prevented from AeeingJby darkness, that it had been left in a dangerous and negligent manner and that since the injury sustained he has been unable to work and care for him self as well as before the accident. V. Cbppernqll is appearing for the defendant and Gibbons and for the plaintiff. The case -will require nearly all of to day in trial. What They Sa.y C. C.
